CASE Case studies

Compared to traditional manual methods, our machines achieve dramatic efficiency improvements. Based on actual cases of customers who have implemented our products, we can demonstrate what types of fish can be processed with which machine and in what manner. We will also introduce the benefits of introducing machinery.

    T Foods Co. in Kumamoto PrefectureIntroduced a processing line for mackerel fry

    Target fish
    Mackerel, approximately 130g
    Processing method
    Gutting and butterflying mackerel

    The mackerel gutting and butterflying machine, head cutter, and backbone removal machine are connected to establish a production line for making mackerel fry. By linking these machines, nearly all processes can be automated. This results in improved operational efficiency by reducing the need for manual labor.

  • S Company in Taiwan M-SS / sashimi slicer sashimi slicer / M-SS

    S Company in TaiwanSliced skin-on white fish for hot pot.

    Target fish
    Fillets of sea bass, approximately 500g.
    Processing method
    The fillets are sliced to a width of 10mm.

    In Japan, it is standard for sashimi to be served without skin, but in countries like Taiwan, fish is often served with skin for hot pot dishes. To accommodate this cultural difference, the slicer's blade was custom-made to be thicker, allowing it to cut through the sticky skin while maintaining strength. With the introduction of this machine, the production capacity increased, enabling the acquisition of new projects.

    • 10% new increase due to automation
    • Processing time reduced by approximately 50%.
